Mohamed Salah could be heading to Al-Nassr, with head coach Jorge Jesus reportedly giving the green light—fueling fresh debate about whether top players are prioritising legacy or lucrative contracts.
The proposed transfer could see Salah form a blockbuster attacking partnership with Cristiano Ronaldo, in what would be one of the most high-profile forward lines in world football.
There is also the potential of a reunion with former Liverpool teammate Sadio Mane, further strengthening Al Nassr’s attacking options.
However, the deal hinges partly on Jesus’ own future at the club, with the Portuguese coach yet to finalise a contract extension, raising uncertainty over the long-term project.
According to reports, Al Nassr face competition from other Saudi clubs, while Salah himself is yet to make a final decision on his next destination.
The 31-year-old has featured in 38 matches across all competitions this season, scoring 12 goals and registering nine assists, numbers some critics say indicate a player past his absolute peak.
Concerns are growing that he may have already played his final game for Liverpool FC after picking up a hamstring injury during their recent win over Crystal Palace.
While confirmation on the extent of the injury is still awaited from the club, Salah’s future appears increasingly uncertain as the summer transfer window approaches.
